  • EP128: Against The Odds: The Faith, Failure, And Fire That Built Chris Matts’ Entrepreneurial Journey

    On this episode of "Into the Unknown" What does it take to rebuild your life from the ground up? For Chris Matts, it started with a vow — to never repeat the instability of his childhood. Diagnosed with leukemia at seven and raised in poverty, Chris refused to let circumstance define him. That promise led him down a path of relentless learning, spiritual growth, and entrepreneurial grit that turned his past into power.


    In this revealing episode, host Jeremy Swick dives into the mindset behind Chris’s journey — from his first $10K month to selling his marketing company and building something even more meaningful. It’s a story about faith, freedom, and finding purpose through every failure — and it just might change how you define success.

  • EP127: Lexie Callies On Sandwich Stories, Caregiving Clarity, And The Power Of Knowing Your Worth

    On this episode of "Into the Unknown" host Jeremy Swick sits down with Lexie Callies, a powerhouse caregiver, entrepreneur, and host of the Sandwich Stories podcast, for a conversation that’s equal parts raw, real, and radically relatable. From launching a nanny agency off two corkboard flyers to becoming a lifeline for both her aging mother and middle-school son, Lexie opens up about what it means to be the "meat" in the sandwich generation — and why strong-willed, educated women have more to give than titles suggest.


    Lexie shares lessons from running two successful businesses, why volunteering still fuels her soul, and how she’s turning firsthand experience into practical, life-saving insights for families navigating elder care and estate planning. Whether you’re deep in caregiving, thinking about future decisions, or just trying to find your footing between generations, Lexie’s story will ground you, empower you, and remind you that knowing your worth — and standing in it — is a legacy all its own.

  • EP126: U.S. Air Force Capt. Aaron Clinton-Earl On Brotherhood, Basic Training, And The Scholarship That Changed It All

    On this episode of "Into the Unknown" Jeremy Swick reconnects with childhood friend and U.S. Air Force Capt. Aaron Clinton-Earl, now serving with the 316th Logistics Readiness Squadron, for a raw conversation about loyalty, leadership, and the pact that shaped his future. From growing up in Milwaukee to navigating culture shock at the Air Force Academy, Aaron shares how a football scholarship wasn’t just a goal — it was a non-negotiable lifeline.


    He opens up about a near-derailment caused by a childhood asthma mix-up, what it felt like to step into basic training sight unseen, and how shifting from player to coach reignited his purpose. With nearly a decade of service and a passion for both mentorship and mission-readiness, Capt. Clinton-Earl’s story is one of grit, grace, and the long game of growth. Whether you’re chasing a calling or honoring a past decision, this episode is proof that some leaps of faith land exactly where they’re meant to. Ps. Ask Capt. ACE about that time he threw the host's wallet out of a moving car on accident, or lost the host's phone in a snowball filled parking lot.

  • EP123: The Day She Said “Why Not”: Claudette Rowley On Designing Spaces That Heal, And Lives That Feel Like Home

    On this episode of "Into the Unknown" Claudette Rowley never thought she'd become an interior designer. She had a thriving consulting practice, a strong resume — and a quiet inner voice that kept whispering “what if?” In this soul-stirring conversation with host Jeremy Swick, Claudette shares how a two-day color workshop became the spark that reconnected her to something deeper: a lifelong love of beauty, design, and the unseen impact of our environments. What followed wasn’t just a career shift — it was a homecoming.

This episode is for anyone standing at the edge of reinvention, wondering if it’s too late to start again. It’s not. Claudette’s story is proof that sometimes the smallest “yes” can lead to the most profound transformation.

  • EP122: From Backpacking Africa To CRDLE: How Valerie Bowden Built A 120-Person Outsourcing Company

    On this episode of "Into the Unknown" When Valerie Bowden left her Midwest roots behind and bought a one-way ticket to Africa, she had no idea how profoundly it would reshape her life and career. What started as a solo backpacking trip across 13 countries eventually led to eight years living in Ethiopia, where Valerie discovered both the continent’s extraordinary talent and the structural barriers keeping millions of professionals from global opportunities.


    Valerie shares how those eye-opening experiences inspired her to launch Cradle, an outsourcing company that now employs 120 African professionals for U.S. clients. She opens up about the challenges of leaving behind stability, the misconceptions surrounding outsourcing, and the lessons she’s learned about resilience, opportunity, and building businesses that create real win-win impact across borders.

    On this episode of "Into the Unknown" What does it take to leave a decades-long corporate career and dive into the unknown?

His journey is equal parts strategy and serendipity—and proof that reinvention is always possible.

Inside, you’ll gain insight into the real myths of franchising, how emotional buy-in impacts business decisions, and why betting on yourself might be your smartest investment yet.

From childhood in the Virgin Islands to commanding stages and DJ booths, Aaron opens up about fear, pivoting, and the power of choosing momentum over perfection.
